On the guitar-driven “LUVSICK”, he blends afrobeats with Spanish sensibilities and brings something different with his smooth melodic chorus. The track sees him detailing his experience with a certain lady whom he can’t get enough of. This is followed by “FLOOR IT”, a dance-infused jam made up of thumping 4-to-the-floor drums with woozy keys and rich guitar plucks and a retro melodic vocal sample. “AGAINST THE WALL” is pretty much an alternative rock song with 90s pop aesthetics. From the layered guitar arrangement, thumping drums and moody textures to KS0UL’s surprisingly dope melodic performance. The icing on the cake is the way he seamlessly blends rap with the upbeat pop/rock melodies. On “ARKHAM ASYLUM”, KS0UL once again switches up with a punk-inspired track that is cinematic and ominous. His flow once again is different and he easily adapts to the off-kilter grooves and out-the-box musical style.
The project closes out with “WARZONE” and “BE U”, two tracks that showcase the rapper’s versatility and knack for dynamic and engaging soundscapes. “WARZONE” is a reflective and soulful track that is composed of a sombre pad, warm textures and punchy drums peppered by KS0UL’s introspective raps about the struggles of a young black man in a white man’s world while “BE U”, an emo-trap track continues the introspective theme and KS0UL reminds us that he will always stay true to himself regardless of what people think or say.
